Junior WRCpartners with Sparco for 2022

Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale. 

The #fiajuniorwrc Championship welcomes #sparco as an official partner for 2022 which sees the championship equip all Fiesta Rally3 cars with the newest generation of #sparco seats and Junior #wrc crews with #sparco overalls.

Inside the M-Sport Poland Fiesta Rally3, Sparco’s seats are being put to use, with Sparco’s Master 8855-2021 seat now the official competition seat for Junior #wrc. The new Master seat is the first #sparco seat homologated to the new, more stringent FIA 8855-2021 standard. The seat design was developed in Sparco's R&D department to bring a significant improvement in driver safety and comfort. It means for the first time in history, Junior #wrc competitors are using seating equipment that meets similar levels of protection as those used in Rally1 cars at the top of the #wrc ladder. Compared to previous generation seats, Junior #wrc crews will see a comprehensive improvement in protection, particularly around head movement, fireproofing and energy absorbing foam built into the seat. 
 
For 2022, all Junior #wrc crews will use the highest level of #sparco suit protection, with a unique design that complements the official livery of the Junior #wrc cars.
All Junior #wrc crews have had the opportunity to customise their overalls and display their sponsors and partners too, thanks to Sparco’s advanced printing technology.
 
Maciej Woda, #fiajuniorwrc Championship Manager, said: “M-Sport has a long and storied #partnership with #sparco and now it is only fitting that this #partnership extends to Junior #wrc with #sparco assisting in supporting the next generation of #wrc stars. From a safety standard perspective, the seat is a hugely important part of crew safety and it is a part of the car that cannot be ignored. The driver feels most of their driving experiences through the seat so it’s important to have a seat that ticks all the boxes in terms of safety, feeling and also comfort which #sparco has delivered. 

“I have been very impressed with the quality of the #sparco overalls that this year’s Junior #wrc crews are very fortunate to be wearing, the overalls also help the championship with a more recognisable and uniform look.”

Niccolò Bellazzini, #sparco Brand Manager, said: “We are extremely proud to be the first manufacturer to install the new generation of 8855/2021 #racing seats in all the cars of a rally world championship. Safety in Motorsport is our first priority and our aim is to combine such needs with the needs of performance of the #racing equipment for cars and drivers. Since the new FIA standard for seats was adopted, we have devoted huge human and economics resources in order to obtain a product with the lightest possible weight and with an innovative ergonomics: this is ”Master”. Such incredible result has been reached thanks to the joint work of our #racing R&D department and our OEM business unit: this is one sign, among many others, of the winner choice to cultivate an in-house know how for the development of all the aspects of the #racing products”.
